We celebrate Communion weekly. All baptized Christians who believe that Jesus Christ is truly present in the bread and wine are invited to join us in the celebration of Holy Communion. Grape juice is available in the center of the tray. After communing, please place your empty cup in the basket on the table. Non-communing children and adults are welcome to come forward for a blessing.

IF ANYONE WOULD LIKE A HOME VISIT BY PASTOR ROBIN

Please let Pastor Robin or Tracy know so we can get one scheduled.  It does not need to be a pastoral emergency...just an opportunity to get to know you better.
